Avnet, a global technology distributor, will be merging its distribution centres in Hong Kong and Shenzhen into a single facility to increase productivity efficiency and speed-to-delivery.
Avnet currently has four distribution centres in Hong Kong and Shenzhen as a result of past acquisitions. Through optimising logistic flow and centralising inventory, the company expects to bring about productivity improvement of its north Asian region operation by more than 15%.
"Asia Pacific is an important market for Avnet. This investment to enhance our supply chain reflects our commitment to providing the best technology distribution platform for our customers and partners. Located all under one roof, Avnet's new facility will support our strategic business direction in expanding our footprint and business in the region," said Frederick Fu, President of Avnet Asia Pacific.
Avnet's new distribution centre is located at the Hong Kong International Terminals, close to other major terminal-related logistical centres and a stone's throw from the airport and the China border. The strategic location is a proven distribution location and logistics asset for Avnet's customers seeking state-of-the-art facilities to serve their supply chain needs.
"By consolidating our resources here in Hong Kong, we will be in a strong position to further extend our products and solutions within the industry. Our suite of innovative solutions, combined with technical expertise, design and supply chain services, enables Avnet to deliver unrivalled in-house capabilities and time-to-market solutions for our customers," said Fu.
Avnet is also investing heavily in logistics to increase the dynamic flow of goods, shorten product life cycle, and reduce complexity of the supply chain.
